Converting SK to DDS

SK is a vector image file associated with Sketch Drawing, a software program designed to provide advanced image editing for product and UX designers. Unlike bitmap, vector images contain layers that can beedited separately and provide a better image quality. For this reason, they are usually used in desktop publishing and image design.

DDS (DirectDraw Surface) is an image file format that usually contains texture data, cubic environment maps or other type of data compressed using the S3TC (S3 Texture Compression) algorithm. The DDS format was first associated with Microsoft's DirectX 7.0 and later on with DirectDraw, a tool for accelerating the rendering of graphics in various applications. DDS is a container file and can be decompressed using a graphics processing unit (GPU).

So, how to change SK into DDS?

The quick and simple way to handle your files is to get a quality piece of software, such as reaConverter.
Although it is fast, this software is extremely efficient in managing a wide range of conversions.
As you will soon realize, reaConverter will help you avoid spending countless hours trying to figure out how to convert SKs. But at the same time, it will allow you to apply a wide range of editing options.

Download and Install reaConverter

reaConverter is quick to download, install and launch, and you don't need to be an IT specialist in order to understand in a few minutes how it operates.

Load SK Files

Start reaConverter and load all the .sk files you intend to convert into .dds because, as opposed to most free online converters, reaConverter supports batch conversion. So you can save the time and energy you would lose with doing repetitive operations.

Select SKs from a folder or by drag-and-dropping them directly into the reaConverter window.

Choose Output Folder

Go to the Saving options tab and decide where you want to save new .dds files. You can also spend a few more moments to apply additional editing to the images prepared for conversion.

Select DDS as Output Format

Then pick the DDS as output format. To help you do this, a series of buttons is conveniently placed at the bottom of the reaConverter window, so you can simply press on the one you need or click Plus button to add new options.

Then simply press the Start button and your conversion will begin in no time!
